Abstract

This paper deals with a previously reported 7-year survived patient with stage IV mucinous carcinoma of the transverse colon, who has been alive with further three resections of metastatic foci after previous four resections of metastases, as of 12 years after the initial operation.<br>The patient had undergone the initial operation for mucinous carcinoma of the transverse colon in October 1990 when he was 47 years old. The operative procedure included resection of the transverse colon and jejunum with a colostomy. The pathological findings showed ss, INFβ, ly3, v2, n3, H0, P0, stage IV. He also underwent subsequent four surgeries for recurrent foci in 1993, 1996, 1997 and 1998. Added to these operations, a left nephroureterectomy for local recurrence and metastasis to the left kidney was performed in July, 2000. In August, 2001, we resected recurrence involving the left common iliac artery, and made a femorofemoral bypass. In July, 2002, recurrent foci adjacent to the left iliopsoas muscle were resected.
